A THRIVING SECTION.
Indications of Great Prosperity in Co
lusa County,


ORLAND, April 20th.-The boom is be-
ginning to come to this portion of the
State. Land-seekers are arriving here al
most every day for the purpose of securing
small homes, and the best of it all is that
almost every one who comes locates.
There have been a number of large real
estate sales in this vicinity of late. One
was over IA 400 acres of land to o. E..
Moore. Mr.. Moore has purchased the
land for the purpose of bringing colonies
from England. Some time during the fall
a colony of sixty families will locate on a
part of the land and at once put out vine
yard and orchard. The land is we'll
adapted to this.
A gentleman from San Francisco is
about to start the erection of flour mill at
this place, which of course will be an i'm
provement. 1t will not be large mill, but
will be good for its size
The Bank of Orland, recently organized
with capital of 100000, will at once be-
gin the erection of a double glass front
bank building, with a hall over the busi-
ness rooms, to cost $12,0 ,000 The contract
for another brick block has also been let.
Knock & Pullman, two miles north of
town, are drilling for artesian water. They
have bored down 10 feet, i'll sandstone,
and are progressing at the rate Of three feet
per day. 1t is believed that when they
pass the sandstone strata artesian water
will be obtained. If this well is a success
many more will be started in this vicinity,
Taking all IN all, the town and country
both are having a very healthy boom. The
crop prospect Is very promising.

A CALIFORNIAN's VIEWS.
Frank G. Newlands Discourses on Demo-
cratic National Politics.

WASHINGTON, April 20th-[Special.l- j
Francis G. Newlands, of California, has
been delayed in Washington by the illness
of his youngest child. He proposes to start
for England by the steamer Servia on the
23d. Your correspondent o-day referred
him to articles in the California papers
suggesting the probability that Judge Field
| would be candidate for the next Presi-
dental nomination. Newlands said !:
Field will not be a candidate at the next
National Convention, ana has no desire to
secure even the support of the California
delegation. One of these articles indi-
Gates that Judge Field desires the sup
port of the California delegation as
vindication against the assaults OF the
Stockton Convention. He needs no such
vindication, and never has needed it. He
is regarded everywhere as one of the most
eminent Democrats in the country. The
vile assaults which were made on him
three years ago have not injured him. On
the contrary, in the East the Stockton
Convention ranks, with the Kearney
movement and the late dynamite out
RACES, as blots on the fame of California ::
and even in California the mendacity and
malevolence of his defamers have produced
revulsion of feeling in his favor Justice
Field believes the only available candidate
two years hence will be Cleveland and that
is my own opinion. l find everywhere
that politician who have been accustomed
to run the machine and control the party
organization, simply with view to secur-
ing the spoils, criticise his policy and his
methods; but he is strongly intrenched in
the respect of the great mass of the people,
and the feeling in his favor is so marked
that whatever may be the private senti-
ments of the politicians who control the
organizations in the various States. and
who will go to the Conventions, they will
be compelled to defer TO public sentiment.

Californians Urging the Repair of the His

WASHINGTON, April 20th.-[Special. i
State Senator McCudden and Superintend-
ent McPike, of Vallejo, arrived here this
morning. McPike went to New York TO-
day, and McCudden will follow him to-
morrow. Representative-elect Thompson,
who accompanied the party East, stopped
at Louisville to visit relatives, and will ar
rive here in two or three days. The prin-
cipal object of McCudden's and McPike's
visit is to endeavor to induce Secretary
Whitney to order the repairing of the old
United States ship Hartford. If this can
be done it will involve an expenditure of
sos, 900 at the Mare Island Navy Yard.
Whitney has been deliberating a long time
over this proposition, but has not yet come
to any final conclusion. Chief Wilson, of
the Bureau of Construction and Repairs, is
strenuously urging that the work be done.

An Arizona Citizen Robbed and Brutal
Treated by Greasers.


Tucson, April 20th.-On Monday night
the ranch of w. II. Wheaton, on the San
Pedro, was attacked and robbed by four
mounted Mexicans. They bound Wheaton
and then strangled him into insensibility
because he would not tell where he had
MS money secre.ed. They secured about
$l30 in money and plundered the house of
such things as they fancied. Before leaving
they released Wheaton, and with cooked
pistols threatened his death unless he
divulged the Whereabouts of more
money, but as he persistently refused
they took him to a well and
tried to force him in, but the hole in the
planking was too small to admit his body.
They carried him back to the house tied
his hands and feet together, barricaded
door and windows on the outside and left
him, under threat of death, if he
dared to molest them in case he again saw
them. After the severest struggle Wheaton
succeeded in freeing himself He reached
Tucson last evening, and this morning
three of the Mexicans were arrested by
Sheriff Shibele. He surprised them with a
posse when few miles out of town.
